説明

The Unreal Live Link plug-in makes it possible to stream animation data from Maya to Unreal in real time. Whether you’re working between the two tools in a virtual production environment or building your next game, you can now work on character assets in Maya and see previews of your work reflected immediately in Unreal, as you make changes. 

 

Version 2 includes new functionality like the ability to push your animation directly into Unreal Engine through Asset Linking. This means that you no longer have to export a file from Maya to get your data into Unreal.

 

Version 2.1 now includes features to help you be more efficient and work faster.

Features include:

  • Asset Filtering - Easily find Unreal Engine assets and sequences with a new search and filter options.
  • Animation Sequence Filtering - Only sequences related to selected skeletons in the Live Link UI are shown to help you make selections faster.
  • Link Settings Saved -  Links set up in the Live Link UI are saved with your Maya scene and reloaded when you reopen the file saving you time by not having to redo all your links.
  • Addtional Camera Attributes supported - Addtional camera attributes for Unreal Cinecamera Actors and Camera Actors are supported such as Aperture, Focal Length and more.
  • Bug fixes.

 

Version 2.0

Features include:

  • Dual installer - The Unreal Live Link for Maya installer installs both the Maya Live Link plugin as well as the Maya Unreal Live Link plugin in one single installer
  • New UI Layout - The UI has been updated to include features like Sync Time, Pause Character Animation Streaming and the new Asset Linking functionality
  • Asset Linking - Assets in Maya can be linked to assets in Unreal allowing animations to be pushed directly to the engine.
  • Bi-Directional Playheads - Timelines in Maya and Unreal are synchronized and the playhead can be manipulated in Maya or Unreal
  • Creation of Unreal assets directly in the Maya UI - Blueprint Instances, Lights, Cameras and Level or Animation sequences can be created directly through the Maya UI
  • Character Streaming can be paused - Streaming character data can now be paused making it easier when working with long sequences or complex skeletons
  • Bug Fixes

 

This version also includes:

 

Version 1.1.1

  • Fixed an issue where the previous frame was sent to Unreal instead of the current frame.

 

Version 1.1

Features Include:

  • Support for Custom Attributes. When live linking a skeleton joint from Maya to Unreal, you can choose to stream any keyframed custom attributes.
  • Support for Unreal Engine 5.0. The Unreal Engine version is selected through a new drop-down menu in the UI.
  • The source code is available under the MIT license in GitHub here
  • Support for Maya Z-up scenes.
  • Network endpoints saving
  • Support for Linux CentOS 7
  • Bug fixes

 

Version 1.0

Features Include:

  • A simplified installation experience allows you to get up-and-running in a matter of minutes.
  • The new streamlined interface lets you easily define and manage which Maya assets will be streamed to Unreal.
  • Joint hierarchy transforms can be connected, allowing for character-to-character animation streaming.
  • BlendShapes are supported, enabling you to make changes to characters such as facial expressions and lip-syncing, and see them in-context in Unreal.
  • Camera attributes including transforms, angle of view, focal length, film gate, camera aperture, film aspect ratio, depth of field, focus distance, and fStop are supported.
  • Lighting adjustments including color, intensity, cone angle, and penumbra angle are supported.
  • Scene timecode is streamed to Unreal as metadata, allowing play head synchronization between Maya and Unreal.

    If you run into the problem where the installer thinks all of your drives are not "local hard drive", run the installer through a command prompt with administator permission.

    Unreal LiveLink をインストールした後、DAZ と MAYA が起動しません。
    現在の解決策は、Unreal LiveLink をインストールすることで、起動します。
    1つずつ削除するのは時間の無駄なので、どうにかしてこの問題を解決したいと思います。
    これはどのように解決できますか?良い返事を待っています。

  • Not sync with ue5
    SHUMING LI | 9月 05, 2022 確認済みダウンロード (これは何ですか?)

    Hi,I have some issue about Live Link 2.0.

    I am using MAYA 2023(also tested in 2022) and UE5.0.3.And I have already disable "Use less GPU when in back ground"and "Auto save"in UE5.

    But when I drag my object or the camera in the MAYA "View Panel" or "Channel Box",UE5 refreshes the display only when I release the mouse button.

    However,when I drag the key in the MAYA "Graph Editor" ,UE5 refreshes the display immediately.

    Is that something wrong about my MAYA setting?All those tutorial on youtube are synchro


  • Please Support Focal Length Keyframing in Level Sequence
    마야07 블래스트 | 7月 29, 2022 確認済みダウンロード (これは何ですか?)

    Hi.

    I am using Maya 2022, and generally satisfied with this version. But there's a fatal problem.

     

    If I add camera section in maya Unreal Live Link, that section enters UE Live Link as a 'Camera Role'. During this role, FoV is normally transmitted.

     

    However, when the camera is linked to the level sequence in Maya Unrea Live Link, UE Live Link subject role is changed to the 'Level Sequence Role' and FoV is no longer supported. Because of this, the level sequence camera linked to Maya has the transform keyframe baked normally, but the Focal Length cannot read, so the keyframe is not taken at all.

     

    Please support Focal Length keyframing in Level Sequence Camera.


  • Maya still says "Update Available" after install of v2
    Toby Cook | 7月 22, 2022 確認済みダウンロード (これは何ですか?)

    I'm sure it will be GREAT once I can install the new version! ;-)

    I've installed V2 of the plugin (with maya and unreal fully closed, on windows 10 pro), then Maya 2022 still says "update available" on the plugin. It links again to download it. What is the solution? Do I have to change something inside Plug-in Manager?

    Nico Steyl | 8月 24, 2022

    You need to manually delete the old version 1.1.1 files and then install version 2


  • almost perfect
    Eugene Flormata | 6月 08, 2022 確認済みダウンロード (これは何ですか?)

    I like the new update with maya livelink knowing if it's Zup or Yup but there's a bug I encountered that I see other people also seeing
    https://youtu.be/yBav5OVEyoI?t=935

    if I link a root bone, and direct control the rootbone, or attribute from maya, it transfers over the values live to unreal5. if I control the attribute or bone from another control. unreal5 only updates if i scrub the maya timeline. the same issue is visible in this youtube video i found for maya live link and unreal 5.

    Ideally I'd like to see the skeleton update when i move a control

    Nicolas Miebach | 1月 31, 2022 確認済みダウンロード (これは何ですか?)

    I did install the PlugIn but the installer does not copy any Files to the PlugIn Directory. So I can´t open the plugin because the MEL Command can´t find the scripts..

    Any clues?

    Paul Siciliano | 2月 15, 2022

    Same issue here. **Then I made sure that the Plugin: GamePipeline.mll was also checked ON (because it wasn't)... re-opened the file then the Unreal LiveLink menu item showed up under file menu, as it should. Hope this helps.
